DUBAI 2022: Entrepreneurship – Connecting Minds, Creating the Future

Our USI Executive MBA program is not only about formal lectures, project development, testimonials by leading managers; it is also about experience.
This is the purpose of this three-day Study Tour in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, from 13 until 15 March 2022.

Why Dubai?

Dubai is one of the fastest growing economies in the world and has a reputation for being a forward-thinking and visionary city. Expo 2020 Dubai will be a great occasion to create, innovate and collaborate.

Dubai is a global hub for financial services, logistics, tourism, hospitality, and trade, and is steadily growing other sectors including healthcare, technology and clean energy.

The USI EMBA international module is the perfect opportunity for our students to get inspired by the entrepreneurial and innovative spirit of the city.
